I'm glad I didn't read all these horrible reviews before my trip to Rome or we wouldn't have stayed here. We arrived in Rome with a list of hotels and no reservations. After walking around past numerous hotels that were either sold out or over 200 euros, we stumbled on Hotel Republica. We asked to see the room before accepting and was a little put off by the hardness of the bed but choose to stay here as we were tired of searching. We really had no problems whatsoever with our stay. The "hard" bed was actually fine to sleep on - not uncomfortable surprisingly. The room was huge (we had a triple) with high (15 foot plus ceilings). Decor was a little dated but room and bathroom were very clean. There is some noise from outdoors but after a busy day in Rome, we had no trouble falling asleep. Breakfast was a variety of pastries and meats, cereal and yogurt - actually a better assortment than most hotels we stayed at during our two weeks in Italy. All-in-all this was a pretty good deal for the price (150 euro) in a city know for expensive hotels. Hotels was also right on the main bus (64) route to St. Peters and within a couple blocks of the Trevi Fountain. Victor Emmanuel building can be seen from Via Nazionale which runs in front of hotel and Forum and Colosseum a short walk down that street also. Overall I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a clean cheap hotel and is not looking for anything fancy.

We stayed there for 3 days and these were the most disgusting ones of my life...I'll give you examples.The first day that we went to that hotel our bathroom's drain trap was dripping.Their breakfast is awful , The only fresh thing here is coffee.And the most awful thing of all is the smell of vinegar.Even the bed linen was reeking of vinegar.Probably they wash them with vinegar in order to kill bacteriums..But they haven't discover detergent?Maybe vinegar is cheaper...I couldn't sleep from this awful smell...Their elevator has problem and wait from anyone to move your laggages to your rooms,you will do it yourself!Stay away from this hotel!Is full of PUZZA (=awful smell in Italian)

While on a school trip my daughter and her friends left for dinner and cameras and ipods worth over 2500 were stolen from their locked room. The staff was unresponsive. We have a police report and have tried to contact them repeatedly but they will not repond. I am appalled at the lack of security while housing teenagers. Do not stay here.

Booked through cheaptickets as a last resort because all our other hotel picks were full - started reading the horror stories about this hotel and got really scared... This hotel wasn't that bad! Granted we went in with low expectations, we found the location was great and we weren't bit by bed bugs. This hotel isn't a 5 star and there were signs of wear (torn wallpaper, worn tv remote etc...) but check in was smooth and the room wasn't too small. Breakfast wasn't anything special; which is typical in Italy. Didn't seem like the maid service replaced sheets but again we were expecting to be covered with bug bites. However... if I were to return to Rome, I would stay somewhere else (closer to Piazza Venezia) and shell out a little more money for a nicer hotel. We were travelling on a budget and didn't stay inside the hotel too long so for us, this hotel was tolerable.

- I as well was on the group trip and all of this is true. The stolen items from a room that locked was the worst thing that happened and I was appalled at the response from the people at reception.
- The elevator was extremely old and could only hold one person with luggage, so it takes a while to get to your room on the fifth floor when so many are using it.
- The worst shower I have ever had..hot then cold then all over again. The toilet leaked..so the bathroom floor was always wet. And our bathroom window didn't stay shut, it opened on its own.
- In my room, a friend of mine went to put her things in the fridge, it was wet so she pulled her things out, and she said it smelled weird. Then she realized her jeans had white spots on them from what was in the fridge..figured it must be bleach and after smelling it, it was. So she complained to them and they claimed it must have been the people before! Ya right, the people before us decided to rub bleach in the fridge. Two words - B S
- The breakfast was as horrible as the service and hotel rooms which comes as no surprise really.
- My advice, don't risk it.
